Germany: Man and trans woman homophobically insulted and attacked by Arabs

On Sunday afternoon, a man (35) and a trans woman (21) accompanying him were attacked in the Mitte district in Berlin.

Shortly after 8 p.m., they were confronted by three young men at the intersection of Dircksenstraße and Karl-Liebknecht-Straße. One of them allegedly insulted them in Arabic in a homophobic manner, according to police on Monday.

A short time later, the suspect allegedly lashed out, punched the 35-year-old in the face and injured his lip.

The attacker then fled. The injured man was treated as an outpatient.
